To diagnose atrial fibrillation, 80% accepted a single 12-lead ECG and 36% accepted a single run of &lt; 30 seconds on ambulatory monitoring. Stroke physicians were twice as likely to accept &lt; 30 seconds of arrhythmia as being diagnostic of atrial fibrillation (OR 2.43, 95% CI 1.19\u20134.98). They were also more likely to advocate anticoagulation for hypothetical patients with lower risk; OR 1.9 (95% CI 1.0\u20133.5) for a patient with CHA\n                    <jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>\n                    DS\n                    <jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>\n                    -VASc = 2.\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Conclusion Short runs of atrial fibrillation create a dilemma for physicians across Europe.
